49. 3 Simple Things To Do When You’re Feeling Helpless or Hopeless That Can Help
Hi my friend!
Have you ever felt trapped in a situation? Or like you had no choice or way out? Some of us have lived through one or more pretty horrible experiences, and those experiences could have planted helplessness and hopelessness deep within our psyche.
"Learned Helplessness" is a condition discovered by Martin Seligman and Steve Maier and directly relates to our hopelessness levels.
The beauty of the human experience is our ability to endure trauma and drama. But more importantly, to heal and become wiser through it all.
There seems to be this season when the helpless/hopeless feelings are so much to bear that it's hard to see past the pain and believe that we'll feel better ever again.
Today we are diving into a study that illustrates how we are affected by helplessness and three tips to help us escape those hopeless and helpless feelings.
We have to be intentional to help ourselves come out of those feelings. Otherwise, they can lead us to more seasons of despair and depression. But there's hope! :)

Much love,
Dani
